Lyrics & Translation
English
One thousand umbrellas
Upturned couldn't catch all the rain
That drained out of my head
When you said we were
Over and over I cried
'Til I floated downstream
To a town they call
Misery oh oh misery
Misery oh oh misery
And one million teacups
I bet couldn't hold all the wet
That fell out of my eyes
When you fell out with me
Now I'm crawling the wallpaper
That's looking more like a roadmap
To misery oh oh misery
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better
And you'll soon forget her
If you let the sunshine come through
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better
If you never let a girl rain all over you
And just when I thought that my vista was golden in hue
One thousand umbrellas opened to spoil the view
One million salt seas
Recalled from school atlas
Alas would be filled to the brim
Sunny Jim couldn't jump it
How can I be pleased
When I'm handed the keys
To a town they call Misery
Oh oh Misery
So with a mop and a bucket
I'll just say forget her
And carry on sweeping up
Where I've been weeping
The Jesters will creep in
To strike down the newly crowned Monarch
Of Misery oh oh Misery
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better
And you'll soon forget her
If you let the sunshine come through
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better
If you never let a girl rain all over you
Just when I thought that my skies were a June July blue
One thousand umbrellas opened
Two thousand umbrellas opened
Ten thousand umbrellas opened to spoil the view

1000 Umbrellas (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Mil paraguas
Volteados no podrían atrapar toda la lluvia
Que se escurrió de mi cabeza
Cuando dijiste que estábamos
Una y otra vez lloré
Hasta que floté río abajo
A un pueblo que llaman
Miseria oh oh miseria
Miseria oh oh miseria
Y un millón de tazas de té
Apuesto que no podrían contener toda la humedad
Que cayó de mis ojos
Cuando te separaste de mí
Ahora estoy arrastrándome por el papel tapiz
Que parece más un mapa de carreteras
Hacia la miseria oh oh miseria
¿Cómo puedes sonreír y pronosticar
Que el tiempo está mejorando
Y pronto la olvidarás
Si dejas que el sol entre
¿Cómo puedes sonreír y pronosticar
Que el tiempo está mejorando
Si nunca dejas que una chica te llueva encima
Y justo cuando pensé que mi vista era de tono dorado
Mil paraguas se abrieron para estropear la vista
Un millón de mares salados
Recordados del atlas escolar
Ay, se llenarían hasta el borde
Sunny Jim no podría saltarlo
¿Cómo puedo estar contento
Cuando me entregan las llaves
A un pueblo que llaman Miseria
Oh oh Miseria
Así que con un trapeador y un cubo
Solo diré olvídala
Y seguiré barriendo
Donde he estado llorando
Los bufones se arrastrarán
Para derribar al Monarca recién coronado
De la Miseria oh oh Miseria
¿Cómo puedes sonreír y pronosticar
Que el tiempo está mejorando
Y pronto la olvidarás
Si dejas que el sol entre
¿Cómo puedes sonreír y pronosticar
Que el tiempo está mejorando
Si nunca dejas que una chica te llueva encima
Justo cuando pensé que mis cielos eran de un azul de junio y julio
Mil paraguas se abrieron
Dos mil paraguas se abrieron
Diez mil paraguas se abrieron para estropear la vista
